***Teacher+Share+Spot***


 * Teachers, this space is designed for you to share what you are working on in your classroom.... you can add videos, links to websites (with small descriptions of the link), and general information so that we can share with one another what we are doing in our classrooms!!!! **

**The newcomers in Ms. V's Newcomer Social Studies class just finished a Keynote on the MACs on a continent of their choice and we had a presentation that Ms. Ricco attended. Thanks for coming to see our presentations Ms. Ricco!** **In our Newcomer science class, and using the scientific method, we just conducted an experiment with a tennis ball. The students had a great time with the experiment. We will be doing more experiments this week.**
 * Weeks of September 12 & 19:**


 * In Ms. V's 6th grade language arts class, we are studying poetry. Right now we are focusing on how imagery and sensory language in poetry causes mood. We will move on to tone and begin figurative language this week. They will be using text evidence to prove/back up their thinking on why they think a poem has a specific mood and tone. We are also adding new words to our poetry word wall. At the end of the unit, the students will create their own poem and make an Animoto presentation. We have had trouble logging on to Animoto at school for some reason. Anyone else having problems? (I put in a ticket)**
